I thought land of the Dead was horrendous... they started thinking, and that's not zombie characteristics. dead people + thinking =fail. Day was okay... I still prefer modern>old school. At least they look like zombies... Dawn of the Dead original looked laugh at able...

It may not be the best in everyones eyes, but I really enjoyed the remade Dawn of the Dead that came out a few years ago.

28 Days was the best and 28 Weeks was the most enjoyable IMO. Honourable mentions: Night of the Living Dead, Shaun of the Dead, and Tokyo Zombie.

I enjoyed that one too, although I think the best might be the original Dawn of the Dead.

Dawn of the Dead and Shaun of the Dead. Everything else is pretty much **bleep** in comparison.

I like your opinion, but when talking about "everything else" surely you must know that it sounds ignorant to the fact that there are two Dawn of the Deads? and unless you've seen everything else, I wouldnt compare.(I highly doubt you've seen everything else, as I am a zombie buff and find new movies I havent seen all the time.)

Oh, I haven't seen everything else either.

The remade version of Dawn of the Dead was alright, but I didn't like how it completely changed the feel of the original - Shaun of the Dead, though not really that similar, managed to pull off a similar balance of horror and comedy. No doubt I'm missing others, but I'd love to see other zombie movies that inject some comedy rather than try and make them flat-out horror.

thanks for clearing that up, yeah there's one hilarious zombie spoof that was low-budget, but I forgot what it was... it started out horror, then it turned comedy/parady of action films. You are right about Shaun of the Dead though. I loves it!

Children is a slow movie, but the first hour is stupid dark humor, the last 30 minutes is total NOTLD zombie worship, but it's a good balance between horror and comedy

I know, but there's so much difference between past and present, that it should be Dawn of the dead79 for old school 28 days later for modern. But you are right.....

out of the modern Zombie Boom movies (2000-present), I think Shaun of the Dead was the best, 28 Days Later was good, but not the best.. I really hated the shakey cam stuff, and the ending at the fort was near retarded

Even though it was part action, part comedy, and part horror(zombies) the Japanese movie Versus is one of the best recent zombie movies I've seen. I mean who doesn't like ridiculous dubbing, the Yakuza, gunfights, martial arts, swordfights, and over the top gore all in one movie? But the best recent one I've seen would probably be Land of the Dead or 04's Dawn of the Dead. Of all time would be the original Dawn of the Dead.

Shaun of the Dead got a close second, Days later is best cause of original script and low budget and great actors. The shaky cam was MUCH more present in 28 weeks. They also use that effect to disguise the makeup of the zombies and theri running stile, or else they would look more like the actors portraying them.

I agree with you there, I remeber discussing about that event unfolding, and how the directors actually wanted the story changed from the moment that the dad turned, but they went with the mansion instead...

My favourite is Night of the Living Dead, I like the look of the zombies in Zombie Flesh Eaters. I've watched 15-20 zombie movies.
